As believers we are assured of our salvation as we see evidence of the Gospel changing us. This is the Gospel Effect. There are results in the believer's life, an effect that is visible, discernible, perceptible, distinguishable recognizable, and identifiable because of the Gospel. In this first sermon of the series Michael identifies how men and women are created in the image of God. To be created in the image of God describes both who we are and how we are to live.
